First brewed by William and Ralph Foster in Melbourne back in 1888, this easy-drinking lager embodies the Australian 'no worries' attitude to life, delivering a perfectly balanced profile with moderate vanilla tasting notes and no hard edges or bitter aftertaste. Straightforward aromas of grain, stewed corn and malt open the nose with a slight grassiness, developing into a clean, crisp palate carrying stewed grains and light malts livened up by zippy carbonation, closing on a delicate, refreshing finish with a faint hint of bitterness that's made this a genuinely unfussy, crowd-pleasing lager for over a century.
